I'm celebrating Christmas, like always.:) As for 2013, I don't know. I'll be finished sixth form next year, which I'm going to be absolutely gutted about. Just A2 exams really, and preparing for going to Uni. As for Uni, if I do go (which is what I'm hoping for), I will be leaving home, and leaving the North East. I guess it's quite a bit of change, and I'm not sure how well I'll cope with it, so I'm pretty nervous, although excited at the same time. I love the prospect of leaving home and being in a different city.
To be honest, though, I feel like I don't want to do anything. I don't want to change, and to be quite honest, I really just want to crawl into a little cave and just live there forever undisturbed. That's so stupid and annoying, isn't it? I don't want to leave sixth form and I don't want to leave my friends. I probably just need to start growing up better. I'm just whining on about problems which aren't really problems. Not really, compared to everyone else, it's trivial. Maybe I'm just too immature, and should stop writing, because this comment is already embarrassing enough.D:
I hope 2013 will be good. It will probably be excellent, and I'll most likely be fine, because I usually am. I probably won't *feel* fine, though, I'll probably feel anxious. Blah, I'm sorry OP, I'm just silly. Hope you have a really good Christmas and that your 2013 isn't as scary as you think it might be.
My year's going to be exactly the same as yours. And you're right; I'm sure we will both be fine, even if we don't feel fine. It's going to be a year with a lot of big changes in it, but the changes will be good ones. Maybe this is what growing up feels like; leaving home and friends and family for something largely unknown. I don't think growing up is ever easy for anyone; I think it's something we have to be pushed through or we'll never make it through at all. We'll come out the other side just fine even if it isn't easy at first, I'm confident enough about that... or at least, I think I am =L
Thanks. This might sound a bit weird, but I've always really liked having someone else on the site who's in the same situation as me, with us being pretty much the same age and both in sixth form, etc etc.:P
I'm sure we'll both love it. I'm just such a procrastinator at times, though. Part of me wishes that I didn't have to deal with it and could just get around to doing it later, in the distant future:P. Ah well, I'll have to get over being like that, it really is the bane of my life.D: I'm such a wimp sometimes. Heh, I bet this time next year we're both in Uni wondering why we ever worried about it:P. Hope so anyway!:O
Haha, I feel the same way :P It's funny, because I have loads of people in my "real life" who are the same age and in sixth form too. It's different when it's on IIN, somehow.
Never did Uni personally, but visited friends and apparently its some of the best years of your life. (My friend is determined not to leave Uni). They'll be hundreds of students in the same boat as you...and if you don't like your house mates can apply to change houses (and they offer counseling as well if your desperate..but most people who finish Uni don't want to come home :)) Take a few special things that feel familiar to you from home, that's what I'll be doing to help easy the shock of change when I move :)
Will YOU be celebrating Christmas? What will 2013 mean to YOU?

We really are very alike.

That's a really good idea, actually. I hope your move works out well for you. Thanks for the reassurance as well, it really does mean a lot.:)
